 THE CLASSIC LONGBOW The Classic LongbowAvailable in two styles, the straight limbed flatbow and the reflexed Longbow. As a weapon the flatbow is a study in simplicity. Long straight limbs and a simple riser bend to a graceful D shape when braced. Unchanged in thousands of years, it can be a hard bow to master. Also known as an American longbow, or a straight limbed longbow, it remains a favorite of traditionalists. The reflexed style is similar in simplicity of form to the flatbow except that the limbs are reflexed slightly away from the shooter. This adds power to the bow without increasing limb mass. It can also be a hard bow to master because of it's recoil.
OUR BOWS Final touches and accessoriesEach bow comes complete with the following:
All of the bows are tillered for split finger shooters. Please specify if you would like an even tiller for a "three fingers under" draw. Your bow will have been strung. The string stretched, served and loosely nocked. The bow will have been test shot on our range several times, however it will not have been seriously tuned as each shooter is unique.
